RE: Iptables can't close port 25 and 110



I'm not running NAT or TOS, the nat and mangle modules aren't loaded, so
I guess the tables don't exist either. It's a single homed server.

Iptables is configures as followed:

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
REJECT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere           tcp dpt:smtp
reject-with icmp-port-unreachable

Chain FORWARD (policy DROP)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination



When running NMAP to scan port 25, tcpdump generates the following
output:

21:09:51.034830 10.0.0.13.4873 > 10.0.0.4.smtp: S 29225080:29225080(0)
win 64240 <mss 1460,nop,nop,sackOK> (DF)
21:09:51.034891 10.0.0.4 > 10.0.0.13: icmp: 10.0.0.4 tcp port smtp
unreachable [tos 0xc0]
21:09:51.035143 10.0.0.4.34627 > SpeedTouch.lan.domain:  44052+ PTR?
13.0.0.10.in-addr.arpa. (40) (DF)
21:09:51.035888 SpeedTouch.lan.domain > 10.0.0.4.34627:  44052 0/0/0
(40)

The following output is generated when I scan port 199 (I added a reject
rule offcourse):

21:25:02.267951 10.0.0.13.4907 > 10.0.0.4.smux: S 259491857:259491857(0)
win 64240 <mss 1460,nop,nop,sackOK> (DF)
21:25:02.268013 10.0.0.4 > 10.0.0.13: icmp: 10.0.0.4 tcp port smux
unreachable [tos 0xc0]

mmh Have you flushed also the nat and the mangle tables? I'm thinking 
about a redirect. If the syn packet sent to the port 25 is redirected to

another port nmap cannot know it: it tells "port 25 open"

do you have tcpdump or a similar tool installed? i think we have to see 
what's happening!
